Corgi Classics |
This Daimler Ambulance first appeared in 1949, bodied by Barker & Company Coachbuilders and went on to become the classic ambulance of the 1950s. Due to the shortage of suitable chassis after the war, Daimler decided to produce a special ambulance chassis and collaborated with the various municipal and medical authorities to produce this stylish vehicle. 499 of these vehicles were built with the majority going to London and although most were bodied by Barker, a number received bodies by Hooper. Constructed with an ash framework, these ambulances offered a smooth, stable ride although fuel consumption was high at only 8.5 mpg. The ambulance continued to be used in service until well into the 60s and a number have been restored and can be seen today. View other product and find out more about Corgi Classics.
